Chapter 419: Chapter 419: Love Turns to Hate?

Love turned to hate?

At this moment, Lu Youbang was somewhat disheveled again.

He really couldn’t figure out Lin Jingshen’s thoughts.

For a time, Lu Youbang even began to doubt his life choices.

"The police car is gone," said someone with a DSLR camera in front of them, packing up the camera.

"Go get that camera back," Lin Jingshen ordered.

Thus, the person in front started the car and drove to the hotel entrance.

Naturally, Lin Jingshen and Lu Youbang would not show their faces; the two people seated in the front got out, leaving the DSLR inside the car.

The two entered the hotel and found the waiter using the contact information left earlier.

The Lin family’s Lin Chaoqi had been very considerate of them, arranging for that waiter to stay on shift today and giving him a day off tomorrow.

When the waiter received the phone call, he immediately went to find Lin Chaoqi.

Lin Chaoqi sighed, "President Lu is really prescient; just as he said, they couldn’t wait until tomorrow and came to find you tonight."

"If it’s as President Lu suggested, wouldn’t it mean that the other party is indeed surveilling us outside our hotel?" Zhao Jingyu followed up.

"I just had someone pay extra attention around the hotel, but didn’t spot anyone lurking," Lin Chaoqi stated, "However, there are many people outside the hotel, and the other party might not be at our entrance. If they are hiding even slightly further away, it would be difficult for us to detect them."

"It seems President Lu’s caution wasn’t misplaced," Zhao Jingyu exclaimed.

"But she’s just a freshman!" Lin Chaoqi sighed, "My niece is already a sophomore and is still as naive as a child who knows nothing. It’s tough enough to avoid getting scammed in daily life, let alone dealing with business negotiations of such complexity."

"You mentioned President Lu is just a freshman; how many like President Lu could there be?" Zhao Jingyu said, "You shouldn’t be too strict with your own child."

Not to mention, Lu Youxi was admitted to Jing University.

Out of so many national college entrance examination candidates, how many can get into Jing University?

One can only say that Lu Youxi is a talent among talents, one in ten thousand.

While Lin Chaoqi and Zhao Jingyu were discussing, the waiter had already gone to the hotel entrance and, glancing to both sides, spotted two young men of average height and particularly slender stature standing by a pillar to the left of the hotel entrance.

The waiter recognized one of them as the person who had approached him earlier.

The other had not appeared before, nor was he captured by the hotel’s surveillance cameras.

The waiter had already memorized the locations of the hotel’s surveillance cameras and, recalling the positions at the entrance, approached them.

"Where’s the camera?" one of them asked immediately upon seeing the waiter.

The waiter looked around, then said to them, "There’s surveillance here; follow me to change spots."

The two instinctively looked up, searching but unable to spot where the camera was installed.

Seeing this, the waiter guessed their puzzlement and explained, "Our hotel’s surveillance can’t just be blatantly exposed; it would make guests uncomfortable, so they’re well hidden."

The two thought that since the waiter was paid to do a job, he surely wouldn’t want to get caught on a surveillance camera and lose his job, so they didn’t suspect anything.

They followed the waiter to another location.

The spot the waiter chose was within the surveillance coverage area, with a clear view of their faces, yet it was relatively discreet, not too conspicuous—making it seem like he was indeed cautiously leading them to avoid surveillance and picking a hidden spot.

Only then did the waiter produce the camera, "Here."

The two checked it, found no issues, and said, "Pleasure doing business with you. If we determine that there’s no problem, we’ll consider you for collaboration in similar matters in the future. Rest assured, if our collaboration goes smoothly this time and we establish a stable, long-term business relationship, the price we offer you will definitely increase."

The waiter hastily expressed profuse gratitude, and after seeing them off, went back to Lin Chaoqi.

"President Lin, those two have left. I guided them within range of the entrance surveillance; we should be able to get a clear shot of their faces," the waiter reported.

Lin Chaoqi turned to Zhao Jingyu and said, "This young man is talented; cultivate him more."

"Will do," Zhao Jingyu nodded.

The waiter couldn’t help but feel exhilarated inside; indeed, working diligently at their hotel was wise and not being swayed by petty gains.

Upon leaving the police station, Zhou Shuyan drove Lu Youxi back to the Zhou Mansion.

On the way, Zhou Shuyan glanced at Lu Youxi from time to time.

Lu Youxi had noticed this early on and even kept count for Zhou Shuyan. When Zhou Shuyan looked over for the 57th time, Lu Youxi finally said, "Since we got into the car, you’ve looked at me 57 times."

Zhou Shuyan: "...You were counting?"

"Just passing the time," said Lu Youxi, and then she saw the corner of Zhou Shuyan’s mouth twitch.

Lu Youxi said with a smile, "Go ahead, what is it that you really want to say? What can’t you tell me?"

Lu Youxi thought and added, "Worried that I got a scare? I’m really fine."

In her previous life, she had seen quite a bit, in the world of business, being treated unfairly, looked down upon, and discriminated against in various ways.

To Lu Youxi, this time around it really didn’t count for much.

"Besides, I know you’re there, so I’ve never really been scared," said Lu Youxi.

Zhou Shuyan knew Lu Youxi wasn’t afraid; his constant glancing wasn’t about that.

After a moment of hesitation, Zhou Shuyan finally said, "Actually... I can introduce you to some reputable supermarkets."

"Ones that can confirm orders directly?" Lu Youxi’s eyes lit up.

Zhou Shuyan: "..."

Why didn’t Lu Youxi seem at all unhappy about taking shortcuts?

"I thought you wanted to rely on yourself, to keep your relationship with me separate, and not take the easy path," Zhou Shuyan regretfully said. If he had known Lu Youxi felt this way, he would have discussed it with her earlier.

He wouldn’t have had to let Lu Youxi encounter disgusting scumbags like Hu Xingwei today.

"I’d be a fool not to use connections when I have them, why would I insist on my own? I’m not that noble," Lu Youxi pouted, "Besides, in the business arena, there are many things to compete for, and connections are a very important element. Otherwise, how did you manage to boycott the Lin family? It shows how vital connections are. If I don’t use my advantages, others will use their inferior connections and still beat me; how stupid would I be?"

Zhou Shuyan let out a sigh of relief and couldn’t help but be curious, "Then why didn’t you tell me earlier?"

"I thought Chengzhou was in the tech field and wouldn’t align with supermarkets, right?" Lu Youxi said, "The reason you were able to boycott Lin’s was based on personal disputes."

"It just seemed unnecessary to go to the trouble of contacting people in other industries just for the sake of Lin’s, but if I were to contact them, they’d be willing to give me face," Zhou Shuyan explained, "Getting you in touch with supermarkets isn’t difficult."
